Literally the greenestnon-green car at Geneva: a 570bhp V10 successor to the original 'superlight' version of Lamborghini's Gallardo is 70kglighter than the regular LP 560-4 model thanks to lots of carbon fibre, and reaches 100km/h from 0 in only 3.4 seconds. It arrives here mid-year, with a starting price of $958,000.

Automobili-Lamborghini S.p.A., commonly referred to as simply Lamborghini is an Italian manufacturer of high performance sports cars based in the small Italian village of Sant'Agata Bolognese, near Bologna.

The Italian company was founded in 1963 by businessman Ferruccio Lamborghini (April 28, 1916 - February 20, 1993), who owned a successful tractor factory, Lamborghini Trattori S.p.A..The Lamborghini group also produce the Lambogghini-Skema V-12 8.2L that is the engine to beat in offshore racing"Motori Marini Lamborghini" which is used by Spirit of Norway that won the title 6 times and there closest competitor Victory from U.A.E.

Audi's premium compact hatch arrives early next year to do battle with the Mini for market share. With a powerful 122bhp, 1.4-litre turbocharged engine, dual-clutch gearbox and a claimed emphasis on driving dynamics as well as customer personalisation, it should be a strong contender.

PHOTO: According to AutoBlog, the Citroen DS3-R will indeed make its debut at the Geneva Auto Show next month. The DS3-R, in addition to its raw looks, sports a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine which produces 200 hp. The car does 0-60 mph in 6.8 seconds, while the top speed is unknown (and likely limited). Pricing and availability unknown.Related Posts

This limited edition fiery hot-hatch drips with tuning parts from the French marque's rallying expertise with bigger brakes, sports suspension, extra fast-looking bits and 200bhp. 1000 will be made, but it's unsure if the car will be sold here. The regular DS3 arrives in July.

Nissan's favoured cute compact now adds some serious curves to its smurf-like mien. It claims more space, increased safety enhancements and a new continuously-variable transmission to go along with a 1.2-litre engine, in both regular and supercharged forms. Expect it here in early 2011.PHOTO: Will be listed on the March 2010 + new generation Nissan Micra exposurehttp://image.bitauto.com/bitauto//2009/10/093538749_550.jpg

PHOTO:In 2010 Volvo will release brand new model S60 with one special perk: newly-developed pedestrian alert system being incorporated in this fabulous sedan. What is this all about ? The collision warning with full auto brake feature detects pedestrians in front of the car and automatically applies the brakes if the driver fails to do so quickly enough.

Volvo's S60 not only gets an all-new look but is touted being the Swedish company's most sporty sedan, with its sights set on BMW's sharp 3 Series. With a go-faster 'R' variant rumoured to be in the works, the S60 will make landfall here late this year.

The safety conscious Swedish automaker first introduced the Volvo S60 a concept at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show and then heavily promoted the new car with Volvo the Game, a PC based driving simulator starring none other than the bronze concept. The production version of the upcoming Volvo S60 is not ready for public consumption just yet, as seen by the heavy amount of automotive camouflage and test track background from the spy photo. The final product will debut in its finished form sometime in 2010.

PHOTO: The 2011 Volvo S60 will be powered by a 1.6 Liter turbocharged engine, the concept made 180 HP with the same unit, mated to a dual-clutch automatic transmission. On board active safety equipment will include Volvo’s Collision Warning With Full Auto Brake and a pedestrian detection system that can sense and avoid innocent bystanders crossing the street.

The jaw-dropping 918 forecasts the possibility of a hybrid Porsche supercar, showcasing a 500bhp racing-bred V8 engine, with two electric motors giving an extra 218bhp for serious muscle. How fast is it? Porsche claims it's faster than the last supercar it made, the Carrera GT, around the Nürburgring circuit.

Peugeot showed its own take on hybrid performance with this beautiful concept, the SR 1, taking a 218bhp turbocharged 1.6 engine and mating it with a 95bhp rear electric motor. It hits 100km/h in only 4.7 seconds, but has an amazing fuel efficiency of 20.4km per litre.

Honda loves to make wacky stuff just because it can and this is another example: The 3R-C isn't so much a motorcycle as an ultra-futuristic personal mobility concept. It has three wheels for stability, a movable windscreen-cum-canopy, a boot and is electrically powered.

PHOTO: The Honda 3R-C, a revolutionary one-person battery electric vehicle concept, will make its world debut in Geneva alongside the EV-N concept, to be displayed for the first time in Europe.

This year's Geneva Motor Show is one of the greenest ever, featuring numerous environmentally-friendly cars and concepts.

Out of approximately 100 world premieres, 16 of these are non-gasoline or hybrid models.

Besides the cars seen above, more than 60 vehicles at the show feature alternative propulsion from many brands, including Kia, Lotus/Proton, Opel and Volkswagen. Even Ferrari jumped on the hybrid bandwagon with the extremely green (literally) Hy-Kers concept car based on the 599 Fiorano and showcasing hybrid technology the company claims 'may be introduced to all road-going Ferraris in future.'

Geneva has always been a good indicator of future trends, so expect 'green performance' to be the theme and watchword for the auto industry for some time to come.

2009 ASMA Design Perfectus Mercedes McLaren SLR 722

Making claims of perfection is a dangerous thing to do, especially in the exclusive and demanding world of supercar tuning. But there is one man who can actually make this claim of perfection, and even go as far as to name his incredible automotive creation Perfectus. And this Designer is Erturul ASMA and this is his amazing, all carbon fiber ASMA Mercedes McLaren SLR 722.

Carbon is the customizing material of choice for hardcore tuners alike, but until the unveiling of Perfectus, no-one had truly used this most beautiful and powerful material to its full and awe-inspiring effect. But, as these stunning pictures can only prove, Erturul ASMA has taken the McLaren to entirely new levels of automotive theatre. In fact, thanks to Perfectus, you can forget about the world of top-end tuning here on Earth, and now, and only now, think in terms of an awesome new age of carbon customization.

Wide arch at over 2-metres in total width, with over 10cms of super-phat and super-sculpted carbon over each of the one-off ASMA rims, rims that are also mind-blowing in their dimensions. How does 325-25-20 out the back and 255-30-20 up front grab you? Hard! And once this stunning carbon design grabs you, it will never let you go. The wide ‘n’ wild completely custom carbon fiber bodywork is simply unmatched and unbeatable, anywhere in the world. Sharp, extra-aggressive F1-inspired bodylines take this SLR to whole new levels of road-presence; this SLR is always in full attack mode, making 700hp to back-up the ASMA Design styling.

Do Good to All People...

Don't be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others--ignoring God!- harvests a crop of weeds. All he'll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants in response to God, letting God's Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a crop of real life, eternal life.

So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith.

Do Good to All People...

Don't be misled. Remember that you can't ignore God and get away with it. You will always reap what you sow! Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful desires will harvest the consequences of decay and death. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit.

So don't get tired of doing what is good. Don't get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time. Whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone, especially to our Christian brothers and sisters.

Long Life

Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance. Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.

Do Good to All People...

Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

This too, I say, is meaningless.

So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun.

If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.

The kindness of God

But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared,

He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

So that being justified by His grace we would be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Titus 3:4-7 NASB

Unknowning condemning ourselves

You may be saying, "What terrible people you have been talking about!"But you are just as bad, and you have no excuse! When you say they are wicked and should be punished, you are condemning yourself, for you do these very same things.

And we know that God, in his justice, will punish anyone who does such things. Do you think that God will judge and condemn others for doing them and not judge you when you do them, too? Don't you realize how kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Or don't you care? Can't you see how kind he has been in giving you time to turn from your sin?

三十六计, 走为上策 - It literally means "of the thirty-six stratagems, the best way is to get away."sān shí liù jì, zǒu wéi shàng cè

The Story: Thirty-six stratagems is a book discussing the art of war. It has been divided into six sets, with six stratagems in each set. The first three cover stratagems for when in superior position. The attack section discusses entering secret liaisons, hiding a dagger behind a smile, and substituting one thing for another. The final three cover the inferior position. Strategies of inferiority include using the weakness of the enemy as well as delusion. There are also stratagems in the end, but the most important of every one in the book advises to get away when in failure. When meeting an enemy who is too strong or could not be coped with, the best solution is to just run away.
